Info When the first platypus specimen arrived in London, experts assumed it had been sewn together as a hoax. No FPs. All by Charlesjsharp -- Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:22, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support per Cmao20. -- Radomianin (talk) 21:21, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support Damn how long did it take you to spot this? (since it's in Tasmania, I presume not as long as on the mainland? It took me about 30 minutes to find one). --SHB2000 (talk) 04:38, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We had a local guide. The challenge is not so much finding one, but waiting till the weather is clear and it's in a position to allow the camera to see through the water. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:42, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, righty. Yeah, when I was in TAS, the weather was very gracious (which was unusual for Tasmania). Still a pretty cool shot tho :-). --SHB2000 (talk) 11:13, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
